USA. FDA may recommend overdose reversal drug alongside opioid prescriptions
In a growing number of states, patients who get opioids for serious pain may leave their doctors' offices with a second prescription -- for naloxone, a drug that can save their lives if they overdose on the powerful painkillers. (CNN, USA, 20.02.2019)

USA. FDA Takes Step to Allow Drug Companies to Sell Naloxone Without Prescription
USA. FDA Takes Step to Allow Drug ComThe U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has taken a step to make it easier for companies that make the opioid overdose antidote naloxone to sell the drug without a prescription, CNBC reports. Making naloxone available over-the-counter would lower costs and increase consumer access, the agency said. (drugfree.org, USA, 24.01.2019)
USA. Design team creates a naloxone dispenser
(...) Claudia B. Rebola, graduate studies coordinator in UC's College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP), designed a device to make naloxone more accessible to those in need. Her intent is to bring a model she helped create first in Providence, Rhode Island, to spaces in Cincinnati by spring.
An associate professor in DAAP's Myron E. Ullman, Jr. School of Design, Rebola has worked with graduate students to create AntiOD, a naloxone-dispensing smart device installed in semi-public places with step-by-step instructions for bystanders. Looking at a broader view of educating the public, Rebola's team has also created an informational campaign to train the public on signs of overdose and how to help. (MedicalXpress, USA, 22.01.2019)

To encourage drug companies to enter the OTC market and increase access to naloxone, the FDA took an unprecedented step: we developed a model DFL with easy-to-understand pictograms on how to use the drug. We also conducted label comprehension testing to ensure the instructions were simple to follow. (FDA - U.S. Food and Drug Administration, 17.01.2019)

Australien. An update on take-home naloxone knowledge amongst people who inject drugs
The Illicit Drug Reporting System (IDRS) is an ongoing illicit drug monitoring system which has been conducted in all states and territories of Australia since 2000, and forms part of Drug Trends.
Naloxone is an opioid antagonist that is a safe and effective agent for reversing the effects of opioids, such as heroin and morphine. Since 2012, take-home programs have been established to make naloxone more widely available so that it can be administered by people other than medical professionals.
Using IDRS data from 2013 to 2018, this briefing note aims to examine knowledge of these take-home programs and naloxone more broadly, among a sample of PWID recruited as part of the IDRS in Victoria, Australia. (NDARC – National Drug & Alcohol Research Center, Australien, Januar 2019)
After naloxone, when can opioid overdose patients be safely discharged?
Naloxone has saved thousands of lives. But can patients be safely discharged from the Emergency Department (ED) just an hour after they receive the medication that curtails drug overdoses? (University at Buffalo, USA, 02.01.2019)

USA. Study indicates opioid overdose reversal products chemically stable past expiration date
A widely used naloxone nasal spray (NNS) and naloxone injection (NIJ), otherwise known as Narcan and Evzio, which are administered to prevent opioid overdose deaths, were found to be chemically stable up for at least ten months and beyond one year of the expiration date, respectively. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, from 1996 to 2014, at least 26,500 opioid overdoses in the U.S. were reversed by laypersons using naloxone. The research, Evaluation of Chemical Stability of Naloxone Products Beyond Their Labeled Expiration Dates, was presented today at the 2018 American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) PharmSci 360 Annual Meeting.
